It ran at various locations (indeed in various countries)  before ending up for sale at Christies, New Bond Street in the early 1980s. From  there it joined a collection of locomotives based at a well-known parkland railway near  Reading - sharing duties  with a variety of other engines (\u003ca href=\"\/products\/stock%20pages\/5378\/index.htm\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eincluding  a Black 5 we had in last year\u003c\/a\u003e), it ran until the early 1980s, at which time it was comprehensively overhauled, fitted with a new copper boiler  by Bishop-Ellis and repainted. On completion of the overhaul the  locomotive was run on air to test it, after which it was put in a display case  where it's lived ever since;  the boiler's never seen a fire, it's in as-new condition; the chassis is, as to  be expected, in excellent mechanical order.\u003c\/p\u003e    \u003cp align=\"left\"\u003eSilver soldered copper boiler by Bishop-Ellis, 90psi working  pressure, four-element superheater, feed by twin injectors and axle pump.
